Watermelon Slices
6-12 slices of fresh Florida watermelon
4-6 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
Mint Oil
1/2 cup olive oil
20-25 fresh mint leaves
2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Sea salt to taste
Balsamic Vinegar Syrup
1 1/2 cups balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons Florida sugar
Mint Oil
Combine all the ingredients in a blender and process until smooth.
Balsamic Vinegar Syrup
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine vinegar and sugar. Bring ingredients to a boil and turn down the heat so the vinegar won’t boil over. Continue to cook for about 20 minutes until the syrup coats the back of a spoon. You should end up with about 1/3 of a cup of syrup. Let cool to room temperature.
Watermelon Slices
Arrange slices of watermelon on individual plates or a large platter. Drizzle small amounts of mint oil and balsamic syrup over the watermelon slices. Add the crumbled feta cheese to the top of the sliced melon. Serve cold.
